I just tried to reproduce it in a Guest Session and i was successful . Its was exactly the same as my main user account
A Hint might be to try to press volume up or down key and keep it pressed ( so it actualy loop ) , i use it like this and it only take 3 steps up or down and hung there. Im attaching my .xsession-error file you asked about . ** Attachment added: "xsession-errors" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/929421/+attachment/2727746/+files/xsession-errors -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/929421 Title: Media key like volume up & volume down and other special keys stopped working after latest precise update. Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Media keys and other special keys stop working . More precise if you do a fresh login and you try to use the volume up ( or any other special key ) multiple times it is going to work for about 4 5 times and then stop responding , after this all the media keys and other special keys like Av mode , S1 , etc ( names differ per laptop - keyboard ) doesn't responding as well and if you try to log out it says that you cant because "gnome-settings-deamon" is not responding . If you other than that log out and re-login the you can reproduce the problem ( keys will work for some clicks - button presses and then stop responding ) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: gnome-settings-daemon 3.2.2-0ubuntu15 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-14.23-generic 3.2.3 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-14-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 1.91-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu Feb 9 12:06:59 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release amd64 (20110427.1) SourcePackage: gnome-settings-daemon UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-02-02 (6 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/929421/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
